Little League World Series baseball wrapped up on Sunday. It ended with an incredible walk-off home run by California.
California and Curaçao were tied at five runs a piece in the bottom of the sixth inning. That all changed when Louis Lappe stepped up to the plate.
The pitcher threw Lappe a challenge pitch and he smoked it over the left field fence to win the game 6-5. After hearing the sound of the ball off the bat, you could tell it was leaving the yard.
